Critical recommendations
Adjusted average of 6.8 over 29 innings. Focus on the first 15 balls: leave/defend percentages, judgement outside off stump.
12 of 23 dismissals are bowled/LBW — likely playing across the front pad or leaving a gate. Work on a straighter bat path and head position over the ball.
1.2 wides/no-balls per over is gifting runs and momentum. Groove the run-up and release with target bowling — a cone on a 4th-stump line, 30+ balls per session.
Only 0.00 catches per match over 31 matches. Fielding is the first thing selectors compare when batting/bowling are close — make catching the priority: 30 high balls + 30 flat catches per session, and ask to field in the ring/slips where chances come.
Out for 0 in 24% of imported innings. Build a repeatable start routine: watch the ball out of the hand, score first run with low-risk pushes.
Strengths
- ✓ Strikes regularly — a wicket every 22 balls.
- ✓ Dangerous ground fielder — involved in 14 run outs.
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 27 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 51 × 30%. Unrated disciplines are dropped and the remaining weights rescaled, so a non-bowler is not punished for not bowling.
- Level
- ×0.47 for the level played (State competition 4 · Rep Div 1 2 · 2nd grade 12 · Club 13). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
- Form
- No match in the last 2 years, so not ranked. The rating shown is from the career.
- Fielding
- Outfield: 0 catches + 14 run outs (0 direct, 14 assisted) in 31 matches — 0.45 per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 29 innings at 6.8 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- 12 wickets in 15 matches bowled in (of 31 played) — 0.80 per match at 19.7, economy 5.28, strike rate 22.3.
